FASTTemplate.xml Issues

The following issues are related to using the incorrect version
of the FASTTemplate.xml file:

Price freezing or latency within the market depth
for a product in X_TRADER®.

If this occurs, it may cause
the Bid and Offer Volume within the market depth for a particular
product to disappear or flicker intermittently for brief moments
at a time. You also may notice this occurring at the same time every
day.

Missing products in the X_TRADER® Market Explorer window.

Autospreader orders are deleted for no reason.

In
the Audit Trail or Audit Log at the time the orders are deleted,
you may see the following reject message: Quoting against an Illiquid Market. If
you receive this message and there is normally a liquid market for
the product you are trading, then it’s likely that the FASTTemplate.xml file has
not been updated on the CME Gateway.
